Xiao Yan fluttered his Purple Cloud Wings and landed in front of Yao Sheng's grave. He continued to gently pat Xiao Yixian's back, letting her pour out her grievances.
Deep in his heart, he felt profound sadness.
Why should Xiao Yixian have to bear all of this?
She hadn't done anything wrong...
Xiao Yan, with his swollen eyes and tiredness, brought Xiao Yixian back to the Myriad Medicines Hall and gently placed her in her room. He looked at her as she lay in bed with a furrowed brow, sighing. He contacted Yao Chen through his ring.
(Senior Yao, can you cure the Woeful Poison Body?)
(As far as we know, there is no cure for it.) Yao Chen replied softly, (Although the Woeful Poison Body has caused significant harm to this girl, it's worth mentioning that in the eyes of some cultivators, it's highly regarded. The Woeful Poison Body can rapidly advance and is quite simple to upgrade. It doesn't require much effort; one just needs to consume poisons to increase their strength. In a world where strength is paramount, why wouldn't some people admire it? Those who admire the Woeful Poison Body certainly wouldn't think of finding a solution to it. On the contrary, some people who don't have the Woeful Poison Body will try their best to turn their body into one.)
Cultivators were highly interested in this constitution, and ordinary people avoided it like the plague. It was quite unfortunate.
Upon hearing Yao Chen's response, Xiao Yan furrowed his brow and asked again after a moment.
(Does that mean that although we don't know how to cure the Woeful Poison Body, you at least know how to control it?)
(That's right.) Yao Chen nodded and said, (Although it's the Woeful Poison Body, it's only different from ordinary cultivators in terms of how it enhances one's strength. The meridians and other aspects are not significantly different. I can help this girl control the Woeful Poison Body.)
Yao Chen was extremely confident. The Woeful Poison Body was rare, but it was nothing compared to the number one alchemist on the continent.
With Yao Chen's assurance, Xiao Yan made up his mind. To prevent Xiao Yixian from attempting suicide again when she woke up, he brought a chair into the room and sat down, quietly watching over her.
Time passed, with each second ticking away. As the sun set outside the window, Xiao Yixian finally opened her eyes, feeling confused as she sat up in bed.
"What happened to me?"
Quickly, Xiao Yixian remembered what had happened before she fell asleep, and her face blushed slightly.
Her heart felt relieved because she had let out all the grievances she had been holding onto. But she also felt embarrassed because she had cried so much while lying on Xiao Yan, a boy of the same age.
However, Xiao Yixian knew that if she had to do it all over again, she would still cry on Xiao Yan.
The grievances she had buried deep in her heart were almost driving her to the brink of madness.
After speaking out about everything, she no longer wanted to think about suicide.
She had been carefully nurtured by her mother and Yao Sheng. If she died like this, and if there was an afterlife, how could she face them?
I want to live!
I want to live well!
I want to repay them! I want to repay everything they have done for me!
Xiao Yixian clenched her fists, making a firm decision.
"Oh, where's Xiao Yan?"
Xiao Yixian suddenly snapped back to reality, and her gaze swept around the room. She spotted Xiao Yan, who was sleeping with his head resting on his hand in a chair in the corner.
Of course, before falling asleep, Xiao Yan had asked Yao Chen to wake him up if Xiao Yixian woke up. However, Yao Chen hadn't done so.
Xiao Yan was afraid that if she woke up, Xiao Yixian might attempt suicide again. But now that Xiao Yixian had awakened with no signs of a desire for death, her eyes were filled with hope for the future.
It seemed that her emotional release in the morning had been quite effective.
These days, she hadn't slept well due to Yao Sheng's situation. Now that everything was finally over, Xiao Yan thought he should let her rest a bit longer.
As Xiao Yixian looked at Xiao Yan sleeping in the chair, she tiptoed over, afraid of waking him up, and quietly stood in front of him.
She gazed at Xiao Yan, who didn't look particularly handsome, and even a bit silly in his sleep. Yet, it was this not-so-handsome face that made her heart race.
This morning, she had already thrown herself off the mountain with a heart full of despair.
However, death did not come. When she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Yan's gentle face, who had already left, letting herself hold him and sob while pouring out her grievances.
If before, Xiao Yixian's attitude towards Xiao Yan was merely that of a male friend she liked.
But after going through this series of events, Xiao Yixian's liking for Xiao Yan undoubtedly multiplied.
It had even reached the point of affection.
Such an outstanding young man, she probably wouldn't meet another one like him in her lifetime...
As Xiao Yixian thought this, she remembered something and her face showed a hint of anger.
Come to think of it, this guy also stole my first kiss!
Even though it was just to replenish my energy, it's unforgivable!
Xiao Yixian bit her lip with embarrassment.
What annoyed her the most was that when she had just awakened, she had no idea how it felt to kiss someone!
"Since you kissed me first, you won't mind if I kiss you back, right?"
Xiao Yixian muttered softly, and her pink lips slowly approached Xiao Yan's lips.
Just a little bit... just a little bit...
Xiao Yixian's heart raced with nervousness, and the speed of her approach became slower and slower. Inside, she felt like a little girl sneaking candy, a rebellious sense of anticipation filled her heart.
And Yao Chen, inside the ring, shook her head helplessly when she saw this scene.
My disciple is really quite a ladykiller...
With Yao Chen's nature of enjoying the spectacle, she naturally didn't remind Xiao Yan, allowing Xiao Yixian's lips to get closer and closer to Xiao Yan's.
However, just as their lips were about to touch, Xiao Yan, who was supposedly sound asleep, slowly opened his sleepy eyes and looked somewhat dazed at the close proximity of Xiao Yixian's face. He immediately showed a joyful smile.
"Xiao Yixian? You're awake!"
"Ugh!"
Seeing Xiao Yan wake up, Xiao Yixian immediately withdrew to a safe distance. Her face turned crimson, and her heart pounded. She scolded him in a somewhat unreasonable manner.
"You woke up without even saying a word! You scared me!"
"Huh? Uh... ah..."
Hearing Xiao Yixian's complaint, Xiao Yan scratched his head with confusion. He stammered, not knowing what to say, and was baffled by her anger.
This girl's emotions were still as unpredictable as before...
